Chapter 431 Chapter 429 · "Make a wish." (Half-drunk Yuzu leader added 3.55)

Such a grand occasion is almost like gathering the blessings of a whole world.

The blessings from well-known players have shocking meanings behind them.

After the collection of blessings from these well-known players, there are the blessings from ordinary people.

Their pictures, one after another, were pieced together to form a continuous blessing video, as if the lights of thousands of homes in various districts and places were connected in an instant.

"——Happy birthday! Su Mingan! You are the number one player forever!"

This is a young man whose face is flushed with excitement.

"Happy birthday, young number one player."

A woman with white hair, kind eyes, and a kind smile.

"...Su Mingan, you have to believe that you deserve to be loved by more people."

This is a smartly dressed woman with short hair.

"Happy nineteenth birthday! Amazing big brother!"

The child holding a bright red balloon grinned innocently with half-grown teeth.

"Brother Ming'an, happy birthday, I wish you a perfect pass all the way!"

This is a young blond girl waving her little fists.

"Su Ming'an, happy birthday."

"Happy birthday, player number one."

"Brother Ming'an, I wish you a happy birthday. Please pay more attention to us."

"Anchor Anchor, when are you going to hire a house manager? Brother Oatmeal is too arrogant!"

Blessings echoed in the silent night.

It spans the long night and crosses a long distance. Like a light that tears through the dark night, it pierces this way and penetrates into the ears of every listener.

The pervading emotions, full of emotional colors, and the joys and sorrows that are connected between people connect everyone who looks up.

The heat is transferred together, and in the night wind beside the winter spring, a strong and intoxicating temperature gradually brews.

As the object of blessing, the "number one player" in people's mouth——

The young man who had just turned nineteen was silently watching everything that was happening in the dark night.

In the still darkness, the subtle sound of water flowed softly in the ears, and the air flowed in each other's silence.

The warm mist is rising and the white mist is lingering, making it seem like you have fallen into a beautiful dream.

Warm air filled his chest.

"..."

He moved his lips slightly but said nothing.

"I think--"

Above the light screen, a mechanical sound of blessing suddenly came. Its voice is loud and distant, like a rest note.

This voice seemed to have been mechanically synthesized. It was impossible to distinguish between male and female, old or young.

...It is like the gathering, change, and combination of countless voices, like the wishes and crystallization of countless people.

"I think - I think you can go to better and further places and study any subject you like."

"I hope - I hope that after the game is over, you can have a lover you like, and I hope you can successfully enter the marriage hall without being disturbed by the world."

"I want to see you shining in the spotlight. I want to see you who can give a speech without stage fright no matter what the occasion. At the same time, I also hope that you can speak when you are tired or low-pressure. You can go to any distant place where there is no one at any time."

"You can be liked by more people, and you should be loved by more people. As long as you call, someone will rush to you and participate in every important moment in your life. Beside you There will be no shortage of people who love you and care about you.”

"You can step into the hustle and bustle of the world and face all eyes. You can also enjoy peace and solitude and become an 'ordinary person' as you say."

"Even if we are just passers-by in your life, inconspicuous passers-by, a corner of the audience under the stage, even if your eyes have never been cast on us, we are still willing."

"We love you like this. We really like you who are so dazzling and unique."

"You can be the light of the times, the guide of the future, and the most powerful number one player."

"...It could also be just a young man who has just passed his nineteenth birthday, what you call an ordinary student."

"No matter where you are now, what you are doing, whether you have seen this video, or whether you have received our most sincere blessings and thoughts, it doesn't matter."

"We like you."

"...I like you, the only one in this world."

"Su Mingan."

"Player No. 1."

"We wish you-"

"Don't be afraid of the past, don't be afraid of the future."

"What you ask for comes true, and what you do goes smoothly."

“The road ahead is vast and everything can be expected.”

"Everywhere you go is a warm land."

"——Sincerely, the "First Player Birthday Rally Operation·All Planning Team"."

…

White light flashes.

The bright light screen made a crisp "click" sound, and then went black in the sight of countless people.

The video is over.

Su Mingan stared at the giant light sign that had turned black.

The slight sound of water rushing past his ears, he blinked, his face flushed by the heat.

"——Still watching, let's eat cake."

Noel pushed a cart from nowhere.

On the cart was a birthday cake with candles that had just been lit.

"Wow, there are cakes, so thoughtful." Lin Yin immediately climbed out of the hot spring. She seemed to like these sweets.

Water droplets slid down the wet stone bricks along with her movements. She tsked and admired as she ate:

"...That video was really grand. It was almost like a birthday celebration staged in front of the world."

Noel smiled and did not respond to her words.

He pointed to the ladder next to him, indicating that he could climb up to the eaves from here.

"Come on, let's go up to eat. It will be early in the morning, and there will be a final fireworks display. The scenery above is beautiful." He said.

Of course, they all jumped up directly. Only Lin Yin had to climb the ladder painfully.

"So at your house, they also eat cake for birthdays." After climbing to the eaves, Su Mingan glanced at the fruit cake stacked with layers of cream.

Speaking of which, he still didn't know which country Noel was from.

The style of the cake with candlelight is very simple, not particularly exquisite, and there are no complicated patterns on it, giving people a very simple and refreshing feeling.

"My family... doesn't have the custom of eating cakes like this." Noel smiled and said, "I asked Yinke to make this specially for you."

"Yin, Yin Ke?" Su Mingan imagined the scene of the giant crow making a cake, and the scene was a bit unwatchable.

No wonder this cake looks so crude.

Noel raised his knife and fork, cut a piece of cake without candles, and handed it to Su Mingan who was sitting on the eaves.

The cold wind on the snowy night blew on my body, and along with the cold cream in my mouth, there was a unique chill.

"I just soaked in the hot spring, and the cold wind is blowing..." Lin Yin wrapped her white cotton robe tightly around her body and muttered.

Even if she could run around in a short skirt, her physique was not good enough to withstand the cold wind, and now she was shivering from the cold.

"cluster."

There was a crisp sound.

Noel held the fiery red stone in his hand, and a red flame appeared.

"Don't be afraid, we have this." He smiled, stood up, and the temperature control item in his hand lit up.

The cold wind seemed to stop at this time, and the temperature in the air began to rise.

Lin Yin's trembling movements stopped, and her face became hot.

The surrounding air seems to be gradually getting warmer, and with it, the prelude to the Zero Point Fireworks Festival.

"Look up -"

Several people looked up.

"Snapped--!"

The first gorgeous fireworks suddenly burned hot in the night sky at this moment.

There seemed to be cheers from the crowd not far away, accompanied by intensive small applause.

The final celebration, the fireworks display, began.

Bright bright colors enveloped the quiet eaves, and various colors of light shone on the faces of several people. The night sky above them was now brighter than the day.

Su Mingan wiped the cream from the corner of her mouth and raised her head.

"Crack-!"

Another burst of fireworks sounded.

His eyes were instantly frozen in the splendid fireworks.

...so that when he looked back for a moment, there were still remnants of light spots in his eyes, and the bright star-like eyes of his companions broke into his field of vision in an instant, taking over that moment of light.

Two pieces of cake appeared on the plate in Noel's hand.

"——I wish each other good luck in martial arts."

Noel stood up and raised the cake plate high towards the blood-red light sign like a beacon.

"I wish us good luck in martial arts!"

Lin Yin shouted.

Noel scratched his head: "I went to check the information. Next, it seems that I want to make a wish?"

"Make a wish! Make a wish!" Lin Yin shouted, looking more excited than anyone else.

"Let's go together." Su Mingan said.

Several people participated. They closed their eyes and silently recited their wishes in their hearts.

At this time, the slightly cold night wind seemed hot.

The slightly longer black hair on his forehead brushed Su Mingan's eyebrows. He opened his eyes, and the tickling warm wind caressed his cheeks.

Under the brilliant light waterfall, he saw two extremely bright light spots remaining in his field of vision, which looked like Noel's eyes looking into him.

A group of four people, sitting or standing, made a wish for a better future in front of the bright fireworks in the sky in the last few seconds of the end of the year.

Lin Yin closed his eyes and thought to himself:

[May my Lin family be safe and prosperous, and my parents live a happy life...]

Lu Shu closed his eyes and lowered his head:

[I hope that one day... I will get my revenge and avenge my family, and... I hope that I can continue to walk with the "good people" in my mind. I hope this hopeless game will end soon and we can completely break away from this cruel copy...]

Noel clapped his hands and closed his eyes:

[May I... find the ideal "new world" as soon as possible. May the traveler...not be an island. May those children... get their wish. 】

Su Mingan looked at them and closed his eyes.

The night wind blew against his cheek, and the light of the fireworks gradually faded away as the sky dimmed.

"--alright?"

The three of them opened their eyes one after another.

"Okay." Su Mingan opened his eyes.

"I'm curious as to what wishes you have." Noel said, "You should be lacking in strength, power, and status now, right? You are really in a position that is the envy of countless people."

"Don't say anything about your wishes!" Lin Yin immediately followed: "This thing won't work if you say it, just know it in your heart!"

She lay on the eaves, moved over little by little, stretched out her hand, and patted Su Ming'an on the shoulder.

"Whether the wish comes true or not, we are indeed having a great time here today. When this damn game is over, we must get together to celebrate, ah, and those friends from before, and my mother , I really miss them. When the game is over, I must reunite with my former friends..."

Lin Yin talked and thought about the future: "Also, there are boiled fish fillets from my hometown. They are delicious. I miss the taste of my mother's cooking. I miss home... Wait until the game is over. , I must have a good cry with my mother..." She patted Su Mingan's shoulder vigorously, patting her, and then her movements were slightly stagnant,

Suddenly she saw——

There was a faint glimmer of water in the eyes of the man who was so close.

"Okay." Su Mingan closed his eyes, and the water in his eyes disappeared: "After the game is over, we will all get together again."

He spoke with great certainty, as if stating a fact that was bound to happen.

Lin Yin laughed.

"Okay." She said: "...We will all meet again in the world after everything ends."

"It's a deal." Noel stretched out his hand.

"It's a deal." Lu Shu followed.

The palms of the four people were placed together, and the palms and backs of their hands were touching.

They kept the unspoken things deep in their hearts.

The night wind blew against their cheeks, and the light of the candles was clearly visible.

Lin Yin would not say that during the day, the lots they drew were prepared in advance.

When it was Su Mingan's turn to draw, only "Daji" would be left in the box.

Lu Shu would not say that he was the main planner of that world-class birthday celebration video.

He, who has never left his real name, is the busiest person in this crowdfunding campaign.

Noel would not say that there is no such thing as "Xiao Xiao" as a second-hand ticket dealer. Those four tickets were jointly produced by the New World Guild and the other guilds.

And he has been planning his trip and stayed up all night.

...and Su Mingan wouldn't say it either.

He won't say what he wishes for.

In that silent world, on the eaves, there are bright red fireworks.

In front of the burning candle, he closed his eyes and made a wish for his nineteenth birthday.

In other words, it cannot be counted as a wish.

…And it’s more of a [pledge].

…

[Nineteenth birthday, a new year. 】

【I make a wish here——】

【I must……】

[I must——complete the level perfectly to the end and end this game with my own hands. 】
